who - watches lier on every
step. Her mother even sits
a ro u n d and chaperones if
Sylvia brings a friend in at
the end of a date. It is hard
to believe things like that go
on in this day and age, but
with Sylvia they do.
Now Sylvia has an oppor
tunity for marriage. This man
has been divorced twice, but
he is a real nice guy with a
good job. Sylvia's mother has
been raising the roof. She
has even threatened to kill
herself if Sylvia goes through
with this thing. Sylvia knows
as well as I do that her mother
won't kill herself.
Sylvia K. - It's true that
Mother would probably never
carry through her threat to
kill herself, but I wonder
whether I have the right to
put her through all this
agony. Divorce to her is the
most awful thing in the world.
She was brought up in a little
village in Europe and has
never adjusted to American
ways.
If I married this man, I
just don't know what I would
do about Mother. I can't leave
her by herself and she would
n't live in the same house
with him. I would be torn
between the devil and the
deep blue sea.
The possibility of marriage
seems very exciting to me
now that I'd just about given
up all hope. I don't know
whether I'll ever get another
chance. Jane keeps telling me
I've just got to break out of
my shell. I want to . . . and
yet . . .
The Council: Jane appears
to be a good and sympathetic
friend, but she should recog
nize that nobody can solve
another's problems. The at
tempt to do so could make
matters worse.
We agree that Sylvia's sit
uation with her mother is ter
rible and that she should
break out of her shell, but,
that doesn't mean that this
particular marriage is the best
thing for her.
Sylvia herself seems to see
the marriage as the one hope
for her to break out of her
prison. Well, that just isn't so.
She might very well wake up
and find herself in an even
worse prison.
Sylvia doesn't speak of the
man involved at all - only of
her feeling of desperation and
her worry about her mother.
Perhaps she doesn't view di
vorce with her mother's eyes,
but she must also recognize
that divorce is not a trivial
matter. A man with two fail
ures in his background has
some fairly serious problems.
A frightened and overprotect
ed girl like Sylvia has little
chance of working against
heavy odds to make a suc
cessful marriage.
Sylvia must recognize that
problems cannot be solved by
taking a desperate gamble
no matter how friends may
urge it. Sylvia's problem calls
for careful thought, firmness
and courage. She is far more
dependent upon her mother
than she realizes. She must
outgrow this by- recognizing
that she is an adult and that
she has rights and responsi
bilities for her own life.
Sylvia should strive for a
broader social life and she
should insist upon the degree
of freedom that is befitting a
woman of her age. She now
takes refuge behind her moth
er's domineering skirts. When
she learns to stand on her
own feet, she will find that
her mother is not all-powerful
and that the world still
holds many opportunities for
happiness.
